Defiantly a Mopar, its got 4 doors and vertically stacked headlights...Plymouth fury?

Edit, Australia got the closely related Dodge Phoenix, 68 model. I think the angle makes the C pillar look wonky...

Doesn't anybody remember the then current model XPs that were used as police cars in Homicide in the midd 60's

http://youtu.be/A5WV5Z9EvoA

and the commercial Ford made 25 years later using part of the Homicide opening credits

There was that short movie featuring the GTP-200 BA GT-P car (red). Rush or something?

Of course just about every Australian movie will have Falcons in it, but the movies (like Death Race) are more fascinating.

Ditto for Mission Impossible. Big movies shown worldwide with Falcons in them deserve credit.
